So, uh, David, DF, Susi, et al.? Is this still the one everyone's doing this year? Zoey and I only have enough money (and I only have enough PTO and sway with my bosses) to do this once a year, so I need a consensus so we can pick that one!

Comments:

I definitely want to do this one, to get to come and see you all again.

As things currently stand, my work is denying me that week off, because in a nutshell, the rostering department couldn't run a bath, let alone a national transport company, and they've double-booked the holiday allocation for Hallowe'en week. I am in the process of going round the other people on the list, trying to see if they'd swap that week with me.

So current status for me is 'yes, this is the one I'm trying for', with a caveat. Hopefully things'll work out.

If I can avoid crashing into midterms/finals that weekend, I may be able to give it a shot...as that's 2 whole semesters away, however, I can't make any kind of guess as to what things will be like that week whatsoever. O_o

I'm inclined to say no. Any money we save up this year has to be funneled into our move (right around/after furpocalypse), and afterwards FWA is likely to become my home convention (especially since it's just a few months after our projected moving period).

So depending on how much we save in that time, I suspect we can go, but I'm hesitant to book a room/reg on the basis that I have to give them, like, a month's notice of cancellation and revoke my pre-reg even earlier if we can't make it.

Can still try, but it's just poor timing this year. Lame. All of you come visit me in GA.

That's something you'll have to work out with someone else, I'm afraid :( I'm already rooming with Zoey, and neither of us are into the whole "cram a million people into one room" furcon arrangement--one roommate is plenty. :P
